Look for the .pdf about halfway down the first page. That'll get you most of the way there.

I removed my dash too. After you removed all the parts from the pdf except the dash, you have to remove the screws of the dash. (see the picture). On the other side are some screws too. After that, at the arrow there is a connector to the airbag. You have to detach this connector. Now you can lift the dash. On the center of the dash is a light sensor. Disconnect this when you tillt the dash.
Now you can remove the dash. Pull it towards you.

good luck!
